gettimeofda
gettimeofday(2) System Calls Manual gettimeofday(2)
NAME
gettimeofday - get the date and time
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
The function obtains the current time, expressed as seconds and microseconds since Epoch, and stores it in the structure pointed to by tp.
The resolution of the system clock is one microsecond.
PARAMETERS
Programs should use this time zone information only in the absence of the environment variable.
tp A pointer to a structure in which the current time is returned.
The structure includes the following members:
tzp If this parameter is not a null pointer, it is interpreted as a pointer to a structure under HP-UX. The structure has the following
fields:
tz_minuteswest The number of minutes that the local time zone is west of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) or Epoch.
tz_dsttime A flag that, if nonzero, indicates that Daylight Savings Time (DST) applies locally during the appropriate part of the
year.
RETURN VALUE
returns the following values under HP-UX:
Successful completion.
Failure.
is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
If fails, is set to the following value under HP-UX:
[EFAULT] An argument address referenced invalid memory.
EXAMPLES
The following HP-UX example calls twice. It then computes the lapsed time between the calls in seconds and microseconds and stores the
result in a timeval structure:
WARNINGS
Relying on a granularity of one microsecond may result in code that is not portable to other platforms.
